Mircom MIX-3000 Series Alpha Smoke and Heat Detectors
General
These instructions apply to the MIX-2000 standard base and the MIX-2001 E-Z Fit base and MIX-3300, MIX-3000, MIX-3100, MIX-3200 detectors.
Installation
These products must be installed in accordance with the applicable NFPA
standards, local codes and jurisdictional authorities. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in failure of the detectors to report an alarm
condition. Mircom is not responsible for detectors which are improperly
installed, maintained and tested.
Before installing these products check the continuity, polarity and insulation
resistance of all wiring. Check that sitting is in accordance with the fire
system drawings and conforms to all applicable local codes such as NFPA 72.
Use 3″ octagonal box for direct connection to the base. 4″ octagonal and 4″
square boxes may be used with proper UL listed mounting brackets. When
mounting on a wall, install 4″ to 12″ from the ceiling. Use 3M Weatherban 606
Non-Flammable sealing compound (or equivalent) to seal field wiring conduit
opening in the electrical box, this will reduce the stack effect. Secure the
base to the electrical box with appropriate screws. Do not overtighten the
screws. The raised
mark on the side of the base indicates the direction of the detector LED when
fitted. Connect the shield, if required, to the SHIELD terminal on the base.
For information on how to set the address of each device correctly refer to
the section ‘Address Setting’ overleaf.
Wiring
CAUTION: Do not use looped wire under terminals L1 and L2. Break wire run to provide supervision of connections. Terminals L1 and L2 are polarity insensitive.
